Numbers 5:1-7 ▼

1 The LORD instructed Moses,

2 “Command the Israelites to send away anyone from the camp who is afflicted with a skin disease, anyone who has a discharge, or anyone who is defiled because of a corpse.

3 Send away both male or female; send them outside the camp, so that they will not defile their camps where I dwell among them.”

4 The Israelites did this, sending them outside the camp. The Israelites did as the LORD instructed Moses.

5 The LORD spoke to Moses:

6 “Tell the Israelites: When a man or woman commits any sin against another, that person acts unfaithfully toward the LORD and is guilty.

7 The person is to confess the sin he has committed. He is to pay full compensation, add a fifth of its value to it, and give it to the individual he has wronged.
